Role Play

Personality:
A warm, kind elder, Harmony has found a lot of inner peace since her days as Marshclay. Throughout her turbulent years, she has learned that there are always more possibilities than apparent, and that they can always be turned toward the best, including the deaths of close friends and family. Harmony considers the whole tribe to be her close-but-extended family; particularly the younger members, who she feels drawn to protect and nurture. This feeling of love is unconditional, so while she may not always agree with what her tribe mates do, she will always stand by them as a friend.

Harmony has especially strong bonds with her lifemate, Slingstone, and her son, Mystic. Their reconciliation eased her heart and allowed for her sense of humour to show through; in fact, she may turn out to be more of a party-goer in these golden years than she was as a cub!

Likes: Functionality and simplicity, serenity, ceramic trinkets, howls, children.

Dislikes: Friction between tribemates, uncooperative clay.

Treasures:
Mystic's beaded ankle band from when he was a baby. The righting of her family and Snowbird's favourite bow.

History:
 

Harmony has always been a happy, calm elf maiden who enjoys relationships with a quiet intensity. When still quite young, she found her weak stone shaping ability while playing by a stream making mud figures. She uses her ability to make pottery and beaded jewellery for the tribe.

Harmony was pleasantly surprised by Recognition late in her life, shared with the younger elf, Slingstone. As different as the two elves are, their bond has held true; they care about each other deeply. Harmony's calm manner tends to have a positive, though limited, effect on Slingstone's outlook on life.

On her way to a romantic interlude planned by Slingstone, the pregnant Harmony was attacked and frightened by a roaming human. Though she and her wolf-friend were able to kill the human, Harmony was very upset over the incident, and Slingstone blamed himself for his lifemate's trauma. Harmony tried to assure him that no lasting harm was done, but Slingstone would not be reassured - so when Mystic was born without vocal abilities, Slingstone was certain this was due to carelessness on his own part. As a result, Slingstone distanced himself from his son.

Harmony, however, always had faith in her son's special qualities - when it was realized that Mystic could not talk, Harmony began working with him closely in the art of sending. She takes pride in his positive abilities and loves him fiercely, intensely enjoying any time she spends with him.

Over time, Slingstone has learned to accept Mystic's complete nature and can see past his old preconceptions. The reconciliation between lifemate and son has healed Harmony emmensely, opening her up to her own reconciliations with death itself.

As her life calmed, Harmony found more chance to reflect on times and loves past, to the point of losing her sense of the NOW of wolf thought. When she found that she could not function normally due to this loss of wolf perception, Harmony went on a soul searching journey, unaware that Slingstone was following her. When Slingstone was caught in a mudlside and Harmony was the only elf present to help him, she had to sink into the uroboric depths of herself, from which both her memories and the NOW helped her to save his life. Through both this experience and her own self-realisation, Marshclay became Harmony and banished many of her own inner demons.

Now, Harmony is able to dedicate herself to her living loves, though the dead - particularly her sister, Snowbird - often seem to speak through her behaviours from memory. She is gaining a more humorous, thick-skinned personality due to age, but she is still warm and gentle to the touch.

With Current's death, however, Harmony has realised her own age; regardless of her newfound peace with death, the realisation has made her more introspective about it. Slingstone and Mystic consequently find her a little more distant and skatterbrained as she tries to untangle the mysteries of life.
